During the first 50 of warm-up I spotted poop this morning. I confirmed it on the 2nd 50 and got out to tell the coach. Eventually they closed the pool, cleaned it out and threw in some chlorine directly in to the pool. But then they reopened about 30 min later. I was a bit shocked that they opened it so soon. The pool is a 50 meter x 25 yard pool so pretty big and they only threw in one 5 gal bucket of chlorine before letting us all back in. Does that sound right? If I remember my life guarding days right, poop means several hours of shutting down.
I was disappointed to have the workout suspended but I certainly didn't want to risk us getting sick, either.
Thanks Rich. This was a well formed piece until one of the team members tried to remove it with a cup. Then apparently it became particles every where. I am putting my faith that this place has kept good chlorine levels overall. I know their filtration system is not the best and they rarely vacuum. I was also the only family member once to get pink eye and it was on a day when they were dumping chlorine directly in to the pool. Let's just hope no one gets sick this time. The team has a big meet this weekend.
